Day 1 1

Well I was a bit lazy today, but sticking to keeping the sugar down. I was hankering for something sweet, so I made one of my old standby concoctions that I use when low-carbing. Whipping cream with a squirt of my sugar free vanilla sweetener, drizzled with 2 tablespoons of melted (in the microwave with a little of the cream to make a ganache) semisweet chocolate chips, and sprinkled with pecans. Obviously this is an occasional indulgence, but still a better choice for me than the crap I usually eat.

I actually ALMOST ran today and then foolishly decided to wait til Sean got home and I was going to make him go with me. …between my urge to run in 39 degrees and Seans school bus arrival, the urge disappeared.

Me

I am a 40 something (yikers!) year old divorced, and then re-married, mom of two, Sean and Jessi. A lot of my blog is focused on my struggle with my weight. Another lot of my blog is focused on my journey to better myself in other aspects of my life. I spent the first half of my life angry and bitter, with big splashes of fun to hold it together. In this half, I want to keep the fun... and make the angry bitter part go bye-bye!
I have been blogging since 2006ish on my on Porchrockers blogger blog. I love blogging and I loved that blog, but my life has changed so much that it just didn't fit me anymore so I created a shiny new blog to match my shiny new life!
